Resolved Question

Do you think work will back me up for this for "insulting" this customer?

Some stupid old racist came to the kiosk to buy some ciggies and gave me his pound coins all of which had BNP stickers on. I put them on the counter, stood and peeled off the stickers and threw them in the bin and then gave the man his change.

Anyways, he asked to speak to a manager so I called duty who is from Iran hahahaha, the customer went beetroot then stormed off and said he was gonna write in.

Do you think work will back me up on this?

TBH its not like we could give them out to customers anyway. Could you imagine walking into ASDA for shome shopping and being given your change with BNP stickers on!!! There would be upoar!! They had to be taken off.

He definately put them on as he has given me them before and he wears a BNP badge like he is proud of it!!!

• He was also guilty of defacing coins of the realm.However,you are there to serve customers ,not make any judgements,you should have taken his money ,put it in the till and removed the stickers when he left or as you took them out to give as change,no problem.This is the advice i would give as a manager,as the old mans money is as good as anyone elses.

• You haven't done anything wrong. Your work should see that the old man is basically a joke with the whole taking offence to his racist stickers being peeled off coins that he wont ever see again lol. It's not like you were racist against him..if you gave a customer coins with BNP stickers on it then they would probably kick up a fuss. Then you'd be in trouble lol.
  
  Crazy little racist old man, i laughed when I read this :)

• Most people who threaten to report you don't do so...its the ones who don't tell you that they are going to make a report who do so.
  Meanwhile, you should tell the manager that you called what the BNP is and why you peeled the stickers off.

• I should think the company will see he is a silly person. You have not said anything insulting, or done anything insulting. You served the customer and that's your job.
